Four Avenues of Service - Overview
The Object of Rotary is to “encourage and foster
the ideal of service as a basis of worthy enterprise.” Rotary is a service
organization. Since 1910, the Rotary Motto has been “Service Above Self.”
Rotary strives to achieve it’s objective of “Service Above Self” through
activities in four primary areas. These are often referred to as the Four
Avenues of Service.
Club Service
This “Avenue” promotes the development of acquaintance as an opportunity
for service. It involves the activities necessary to make the Club
function successfully and achieve its goals.
Vocational Service
This area represents the opportunity that each Rotarian has to represent
the dignity and utility of one’s vocation as an opportunity to serve
society. Rotarians promote and foster high ethical standards in business
and professions and promote the recognition of the worthiness of all
useful occupations.
Community Service
This “Avenue” relates to the activities that Rotarians undertake to
improve the quality of life in their community. Particular emphasis is
given to helping children, needy families, the aged, the handicapped, and
those most in need of assistance. Rotarians strive to promote the ideal of
service in their personal, business, and community lives.
International Service
In this area, Rotarians strive for the advancement of international
understanding, goodwill, and peace through a world fellowship of business
and professional persons united in the ideal of service. International
Service Projects are designed to meet the humanitarian needs of people in
many lands, with particular emphasis on the most underprivileged children
and families in developing countries.
